Can you give me the voice over list address? If there is any tutorials, links to those would be hugely appreciated. I am already on the pro audio list for the mac as well, so we'll see what gives there. -- Damon Fibraio screen names -- aol: dfibraio...msn [EMAIL PROTECTED] skype: dfibraio personal music site: http://www.keyboardguy.com.

You may also want to want to join the Macvoice over list on freelists. Press command-option-control-f8 to bring up the interactive getting started tutorial that is provided as part of VoiceOver. It helps with a lot of the commands. control-option-questionmark will bring up voiceover help but that may be a bit daunting till you become slightly familiar with how interacting with content works. The archives of both list can be quite useful and there is a getting started guide for voice over available in pdf, audio and doc form as well as embossable, I can never remember where it is available from though so you will hear from someone else on that or find it in the archives. Linux guy can dive right into terminal. Pro audio will be a bit touh though but others will speak to that. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Damon Fibraio" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, April 07, 2008 11:27 AM Subject: diving in to mac OK, PC user for years, just bought my first Mac Mini over the weekend. Haven't really set it up yet. I bought this for a multitude of reasons, the size of the system, I needed to replace my aging and dying 7 year old Dell pC for broadcasting on the internet purposes, my cousin has an I-Mac and keeps asking me questions I can't answer, and eventually, may want to change over to Mac pro for audio recording work, but wanted to get my feet wet. I guess the first thing I should ask is what the best resources for learning this thing are. I naturally would use voice over for speech. I do plan on using bootcamp to dual boot into win xp as well. So, when I plug this baby in and turn her on, I know how to bring up voice over, but where do I go to learn the system? What pointers can you all give? While I am not a newbie on computers, having used windows for years, and I know PC's very well, Macs are new, so I can learn quickly, but just need some direction on where to go to read up on things and teach myself. Any pointers you all can throw out are welcome. I am sure I will have more questions as I go on. I am also researching mac book or mac book pro laptops to replace my pc laptop for combined mac os and win xp use for work and also for recording stuff as well, and want to know how any of you who have these laptops make out and what you spent on them, generally. Thanks. -- Damon Fibraio screen names -- aol: dfibraio...msn [EMAIL PROTECTED] skype: dfibraio personal music site: http://www.keyboardguy.com.
